Hi Hannes, While the question hasn't been answered directly, I assume from the context of the answer that not only the MSVC compiler won't work anymore, but also compiling v8 against the Microsoft STL/Standard C+ library.
Given v8 uses the C++ standard library in it's public API, I don't see how your suggestion works. Can you provide more details?
